Psalm 31:10

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.

So he caused them to die unsatisfied and filled with terror.

I am oppressed and have been on the verge of death since my youth. I have been subjected to your horrors and am numb with pain.

For my days go up in smoke, and my bones are charred like a fireplace.

For my sighing comes in place of my food, and my groanings flow forth like water.

I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.

Do not reject me in my old age! When my strength fails, do not abandon me!

When I refused to confess my sin, my whole body wasted away, while I groaned in pain all day long.

For my days go up in smoke, and my bones are charred like a fireplace.
